There's a story of a teenager with behavioral issues. Equine therapy transformed him. He learned discipline from taking care of the horse, feeding it at the right times, cleaning the stable. This new - found discipline also carried over to his school life, and his grades improved. The horse became his motivation to be better.
There is a story of a stroke patient. After the stroke, he had limited mobility on one side of his body. In equine assisted therapy, he would hold onto the horse while it walked. The gentle movement of the horse forced his body to adapt and regain some lost muscle function. It was inspiring to see him gradually regain more movement and independence.
Sure. There was a child with autism who was very withdrawn. Through equine therapy, he started to interact more. He learned to groom the horse, which required gentle touches and communication. Eventually, he became more open to interacting with people and his social skills improved a great deal.

One notable case was a teen suffering from depression. Equine therapy made a huge difference. Just being around the horses and having the responsibility of feeding them gave her a routine.

Yes, there are. In the history of horse breeding in Europe, certain noble families were very involved in breeding horses for war and carriage. They would often document the pairings of their prized stallions and mares. These records not only told of the equine sex for breeding purposes but also became part of the family's legacy and the history of equine breeding in that region.
Equine breeding involves natural processes. For example, in a stud farm, a stallion is carefully selected for a mare based on various factors like genetic traits. Breeders aim to produce offspring with desirable qualities such as good conformation, strong bones, and a gentle temperament. The mating process is often supervised to ensure the safety of both the mare and the stallion.
I'm not aware of any legitimate 'success story' in conversion therapy. Conversion therapy has been widely discredited by the scientific community as it is based on the false premise that being LGBTQ+ is a disorder that can be 'cured'. It often causes harm, including mental distress, to those who are subjected to it.
Commitment to change. If a couple is really committed to making the relationship work in therapy, like a couple who decided to change their negative habits of always criticizing each other, they are more likely to have a success story. They started focusing on positive aspects and giving compliments, which transformed their relationship.
